Abstract
We present a novel slanted faces of thin-disk composite Yb:YAG YAG laser which is side-pumped by four non-symmetric hollow- ducts. The pump light distribution in the disk is modeled by using Monte-Carlo ray tracing method. The temperature distribution inside the crystal is calculated by taking into account either the concentration of Yb+3 ion or the different transmission of laser output coupler. By using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method, we calculated the absorption efficiency through the disk. The resonator is simulated by self consistently method. The resulting of optical efficiency and the output power of our laser have been modeled.

Abstract
In this paper, an analytical model is presented to compare the monolithic end-pumped and distributed side-pumped arrangements in the master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) of Q-switched (QSW) double-clad (DC) ytterbium (Yb)-doped fiber system. First, the time-dependent rate equations are solved numerically by the finite difference method and the output pulse characteristics are obtained. For more amplifying, the laser pulse is injected into the amplifier and the gain and saturation coefficients are obtained by using the best fitting between the outcoming data from solving rate equations and the transient amplification relation, based on the least squares method (LSM). Finally, the dependence of pump power and dopant concentration on the cavity amplifying parameters are investigated.
